Bistro 33 is on a corner of a sub-soi off Sukhumvit Soi 33, situated in a house with a lovely garden and large plate glass windows that take full advantage of it. Truthfully, this cafe has little in common with a bistro in the strict sense, semantics aside though, it has lots to offer in the comfort-food department and one can while away many hours in this very pleasant environment.
The menu lists a Caesar salad, variations on the theme of hamburgers: cheese burger, meat ball burger with spicy tomato sauce, and a turkey burger. In addition; a Ruben sandwich, Quesadillas (either chicken or vegetarian) and the usual inescapable Italian items—all these dishes seem to improve somewhat after a few quaffs from the well-thought-out and properly priced wine list. Basically, there is something for everyone on this eclectic menu. My daughter enjoyed an Orange/Yogurt smoothie, and that made her day, along with an excursion into the garden with her drawing pad, where she plunked herself down on a wooden bench and attempted to sketch a Plumeria tree.
